How are banners rotated?
When more than one banner is available in a campaign, banners are selected with equal probability. You can increase the probability of selection by placing multiple ads in the same campaign.

Tips for a successful banner ad
- Ads can get easily blocked by browser extensions. The file name can be factor in getting blocked. Avoid naming your file anything like ‘banner’, ‘ad’, ‘advertisement’ or the dimensions of the ad like ‘728×90’, ‘300×250’ and ‘680×300’.
- Carefully consider how your banner ad will be displayed on mobile devices. Text that may be big enough to read on desktop could be too small on mobile devices.
- Do not overlay buttons which promise non-existent functionality like “play”, “download” or “close” which violate _EDGE’s Terms & Conditions.
